COMPLAINT
ICMS #: 2020-1147
September 17, 2020
Complaint:
complainant, filed an online complaint with the Office of Police
Oversight stating the following:
"A post on the
shows and claims officers not wearing masks until Austin
residents began recording them. Given the post was made five hours ago (approximately
CST), I'd give the officers a slight benefit of the doubt in that the notification for
mandatory masks was made on 07/03/20 that I'm aware, but there's no excuse that there
are some officers clearly wearing masks and others that defiantly are not. Much like the
post below reads how are the people of this city warned of a $250 fine but not the police?
I want to know what immediate steps, if any, you as an oversight committee can take how
this can be addressed with the rising numbers of Covid-19. I will also be reaching out to
the Austin City Council and the mayor with the same inquiry. We are coming off heated
protests across the state of Texas and the country, and yet it appears that the process to
positively reform police is affectively being opposed by the police. Add this to the list of
reasons communities do not trust the police. Actions like this will result in that distrust
continuing long into the future. Do something.
